@mrillig True that :)

@mrillig I mean from pedogenesis viewpoint, ignoring all other factors?

@vishuguttal I got a few emails for a recent postdoc position in my lab starting with "Dear Madam or Sir" that followed with "I have been following your research for a while , have gone through your recent publications, and my previous work aligns with yours. ".
I mean c'mon...

Recovered wild maize gene boosts crop protein without yield loss 🧬

🌽 A “lost” gene from teosinte, maize’s wild ancestor, achieved something huge: boosting grain protein from 8.5% to 12–13% without reducing yield.

Dear @airarabiagroup , please explain why modifying a booking is costing significantly more than the actual price shown on the website?

So incredibly honored!

[Amit Kumar @Amit_Kumar_PhD]

@Martin_A_Nunez Sounds like a plan. let me know once you have got that time 👍😀

[Amit Kumar @Amit_Kumar_PhD]

Hot off the press!
What began as a side project has grown into a piece of work I am genuinely excited to share.
It’s always rewarding when a “side-kick” project takes on a life of its own and contributes new insight to the bigger picture. https://t.co/A5h1zHtxPl

@courtney_herms @KU_PLEN All the best for new chapter. "Goodbye" at one place means "Welcome" somewhere else. :)

[Amit Kumar @Amit_Kumar_PhD]

It was wonderful meeting Bala and the kids recently in the UAE. Some memories refreshed, some stories shared, and plenty of laughter over a dinner table. Moments like these remind you how special friendships are.

High bacterial diversity drives the suppression of a soilborne plant disease

"the diversity of synthetic communities per se can provide plant health benefits through an increased ability to protect against pathogens."
